    Hi there, not sure if this is the right place to ask, please point me in
    the right direction if not.

    I recently started using Syncterm to connect and play door games such as Tradewars 2002. I am new to using doors over the net, when I used to use
    the modem with a terminal program I was able to capture text sessions
    while playing TW. I could capture the session and save it from the
    terminal app I was using. I would then use the capture text in my
    Tradewars Assistant application which would help me out with the game.

    Is there a way to capture output through Syncterm so that I can use the
    output for my assistant application?

    Apologies if this is a newbie question.

    Thanks in advance for any information.

    Yes, Alt-C for capture control in SyncTERM. Atl-Z for the menu.

    Thank you DM! Apologies as I should probably 'rtfm' before I start
    asking questions.

    Thanks for your assistance though, appreciated greatly.
